• Versatile solution that can handle particles up to 36 mm and viscosities well in excess of 50,000 cP. • Easy-to-clean design can flexibly transition between products with limited downtime.

• Multiple material options ensure efficient heat transfer and reliable mechanical performance. • Flexible installation with horizontal or vertical configuration to meet space limitations. • Vertical installations include a built-in hydraulic system that allows for fast and safe inspection with low service costs. The scraped-surface heat exchanger principle In scraped-surface heat exchanger applications, the product enters the cylinder at the bottom and flows upwards. The heating or cooling medium travels in a counter-current flow through a narrow annular channel.

The thermostats are 'COTHERM type: TSE T115'. There is a little red plastic switch labelled SAFETY which the electrician told her to 'pop out'. However, using a small screwdriver to press this switch does not release it out again. I have a Megaflow CL250 HW cyl with one Cotherm type TSE immersion heater fitted as a back-up to the gas fired heating system. With the latter currently out of action, I've discovered that the immersion heater isn't working.

Rotating blades continuously remove product from the cylinder wall to ensure uniform heat transfer. The product enters the cylinder in a corkscrew pattern in the same direction as the rotating scraping assembly. This preserves product quality by reducing shear, providing gentler product handling and reduced pressure drop across the inlet. Finally, the product exits the cylinder at the top. Both product flow and rotor speed can be adjusted to suit the particular properties of the product in the cylinder.

More than you thought possible For continuous processing of demanding products, the complete Contherm ® range provides endless possibilities. In fact, today Alfa Laval is the only supplier on the market who can offer robust heat transfer with both double and single-wall scraped surface heat exchanger solutions.

We understand that no two customers’ needs are identical. That’s why Contherm ® heat exchangers are always fully tailored to fit the intended application.

The end result is more: more capacity, more efficiency and – most importantly – more profitability. When it comes to your business, who doesn’t want more? Viscous products The complete Contherm ® range provides solutions for continuous processing of any type of challenging viscous liquid. Whether dealing with low or medium-viscosity products or those with extremely high viscosities, there is a member of the Contherm ® family to fit your needs. Example applications include: ketchup, mayonnaise, hummus, chocolate spreads, fruit pie fillings, gravies and sauces, whipped/aerated products, peanut butter, pizza sauces, puddings, salad dressings, salsa and taco fillings, sandwich spreads, bread dough, mechanically deboned meat (MDM), gelatine, omelettes, baby food, nougat, skin lotions, shampoos, liquorice, and more. Crystallizing products and applications with phase change challenges Preserving taste, colour and/or texture is a particular challenge for manufacturers of products that can undergo crystallization.

We work with your business to find the optimal Contherm ® solution to fit your production. Example applications include: coffee/tea extracts, icings and frostings, sugar concentrates, margarines, shortening, spreads, gelatine broth, lard, fondant, biscuit creams, solvents, fatty acids, petroleum jelly, beer and wine, and more.

My sister has a Heatrae Sadia megaflo hot water tank with two immersion heaters for her hot water. Heating is separate, by storage heaters (no gas supply to flats). She has had some problems, and an electrician has been called a couple of times. Last time, he told her how to reset the thermostat if it tripped. However, there are a couple of things I'd like advice on, please. From my reading so far, I think that the lower immersion heater is the overnight timed one, and the upper is the boost one - is this always the case? The thermostats are 'COTHERM type: TSE T115'.

There is a little red plastic switch labelled SAFETY which the electrician told her to 'pop out'. However, using a small screwdriver to press this switch does not release it out again. Should it, in fact, be pushed in?

I ask both questions because I took the cover off the lower stat and the switch is level with the blue surround, whereas the top one (which the electrician adjusted last time) is depressed. However, the boost currently works and the main water heating does not. Finally, if this happens again, is it most likely to be a dodgy stat, or will the whole element need replacing? Sorry for the long post, thanks in advance for any advice. The only time a reset button should be used is when you have two forms of heating for example solid fuel. In a way you do have two forms of heating as you have two elements and since thermosyphon will cause water at top to also be heated from bottom element then top one can trip due to fault in bottom one.
